KOTA KINABALU, Dec 31 (Bernama) -- Sabah, under the leadership of Chief Minister Datuk Seri Musa Aman, is not only poised to enjoy good fortune in the years to come but is also on a firm financial footing, amid an imminent snap general election expected in the year of the Dragon.

With efficient and prudent management of its finances and resourses, Sabah is in the "safe hands" of Chief Minister Datuk Musa Aman.

Sabah Umno liaison deputy chief Datuk Seri Salleh Said Keruak once said credit should be given to Musa for steering the state to greater heights.

Salleh, who is also state assembly speaker, once said even auditor-general Tan Sri Ambrin Buang had praised Sabah's financial standing and gave it a clean bill for 11 consecutive years.

"With reserves exceeding RM3 billion, this is no mean feat for the state administration which has also earned the highest rating of triple "AAA" from RAM Rating Services for the past three years," said an analyst.

Sabah also obtained ISO certification from Moody's International for efficiency and proper state budget management for three consecutive years.

It must also be noted that the auditor-general's report for this year showed actual figures that reflected the state's excellent financial achievements.

Salleh once commented that the chief minister's brainchild, the "Halatuju" blueprint had succeeded in bringing positive development to the state and many benefits to the people.

This, coupled with the state's political stability, has made Sabah a very conducive destination for foreign investors.

Musa, noted for turning the fortunes of the state around since he came to power in 2003, improved infrastructure and infused new life into a creaking state machinery.

He caught the opposition by surprise when he unveiled a whopping RM4.04 billion state budget for 2012, the largest ever in Sabah's 48-year history.

Musa, who is also State Finance Minister, said the estimated expenditure in 2012 would cover three main components, namely emolument (RM623.66 million), recurring expenses (RM1.120 billion) and special expenditure (RM2.303 billion).
 
He also projected the state's economy to grow between 4.5 per cent and 5 per cent in 2012.

  1. For Sabah to have obtained ISO certification from Moody's International for efficiency and proper state budget management is a respectable achievement and also a good prospect into the future for the state at large.
